Nicely running complete 2.4 TE 911 engine on MFI for sale
Posted: Thu Jan 08, 2026 10:24 am
I have for sale a nicely running 2.4TE engine. Complete, running on MFI. I installed it as a stop gap 23 years ago (!) until my numbers matching engine was rebuilt. I'm now close to having the original engine ready to go back in my car.
The engine can be seen running and could be driven, depending on the winter salt on the roads.
I bought the engine from Transend (Peter Andrews, Cambridgeshire) in 2003 and have covered 10800 miles with it across the UK and to Le Mans, etc. It was purchased as rebuilt, but not by Transend, on new cases.
It was set up and dyno'd by the late Bob Watson in 2007, 8400 miles ago and made 140bhp then, matching factory output.
I ran a compression test 2600 miles ago during routine servicing with pressures across all cylinders ranging from 175-185psi.
I have receipts and paperwork to support all the above. I change the oil regularly and run it on Valvoline racing oil and it starts easily from cold or hot.
It’s a reluctant sale. My plan was always to fit it in a 914. However, time is against me and most of all I want to have the original engine back in my 911 to enjoy and so am selling this engine to offset some of the associated cost.
I'm a regular reader and have been on DDK for decades, but rarely post.
It’s difficult to value, but it does not need a rebuild and depending on when it sells, can be seen running and possibly driven. Hence, I'm thinking around offers on £13,995.
I welcome questions and conversations from interested parties, please contact me through PM initially. Thank you. David.
